Porta Brace STC-3EX Storm Coat Extreme - for Professional Broadcast Cameras

The Porta Brace STC-3EX Storm Coat Extreme was designed to protect broadcast cameras from heavy weather conditions. It is made of a 3 layer bond of tough 200 denier nylon oxford, a waterproof sheet of Fabuthane, and a soft layer of nylon tricot. The coat is fast and easy to put on with an extended zipper on the bottom and a zippered viewfinder sleeve. There is a neoprene gasket around the lens shade both grips the lens shade to keep the case in proper position, and seals out harsh weather, sea-spray and dust.

The STC-3EX has a mic cover with two designated tie downs to keep the cover trim in high winds, and can accommodate multiple microphones. An extended hand-sleeve for camera operation is long enough to transition over your jacket to help keep you dry. It has a 17" storm collar that allows top access to the camera offering the possibility for a carrying strap and a light. The opening seals tight with hook and loop and folds over for extreme weather. A neoprene light guard forms a gasket around the light post and fastens anywhere along the 17" collar, keeping the camera dry. For added operator comfort, a neoprene pad covers the bottom zippers at the camera's shoulder pad.

The STC-3EX also includes a large vinyl window on the viewfinder side, a separate zipped opening for left handed manual focus and controls, an expandable back that gives you an extra 2 inches in length if you need it, and easy access to battery and tape.
